TRANSFORMERS ONE Had a Disappointing Box Office Opening, What Do You Think Happened?

Transformers One did not do arsenic good arsenic Paramount Pictures hoped it would astatine nan container agency connected its opening weekend. The movie made $25 cardinal domestically, and it was search to unfastened pinch $35 million, truthful that is simply a beautiful large blow.

So, what happened? Why didn’t group show up to theaters to watch nan movie? Well, from my perspective, nan trading and nan trailers did not do a bully occupation trading nan film, and group conscionable weren’t excited to spot it.

I initially wasn’t sold connected this movie, but aft watching nan afloat film, I liked it! The movie really ended up being a really bully movie that told a beardown story! It’s funny, because aft I saw nan movie, a new trailer was released, and I was telling my friend, “I cognize this movie is good, because I’ve seen it, but this trailer makes maine not want to spot it.”

Some of nan issues I saw group talking astir were nan comedic tone, nan very caller and different personalities of nan characters, nan cartoonish designs, and evidently nan truth that Peter Cullen did not play Optimus Prime. But, location was besides thing successful nan trading that was turning group off.

The trading should’ve leaned much into nan badassery of nan Transformers alternatively of this full caller and different comedic reside that was ne'er really a Transformers thing. Having seen nan film, I get what they are trying to do, but it doesn’t construe good pinch nan marketing.

So, nary matter really awesome nan reviews were, group were watching nan trailers and saying, “No, convey you.” Even aft I told immoderate friends of excavation really nosy and bully nan movie was, they still person nary desire to spell retired and watch nan movie.

They conscionable can’t get past what they’ve been shown successful each nan marketing. It’s really interesting, but I get it! I was successful nan aforesaid boat.

I still deliberation location is life successful nan Transformers franchise, and that goes for G.I. Joe arsenic well. But, nan executives and producers attached to these brands astatine Paramount Pictures really request to understand their halfway audience, because they intelligibly don’t.

This movie tells nan “origin communicative of really nan astir iconic characters successful nan Transformers universe, Orion Pax and D-16, went from brothers-in-arms to go sworn enemies, Optimus Prime and Megatron.”

The movie stars Chris Hemsworth arsenic Orion Pax / Optimus Prime, Brian Tyree Henry arsenic D-16 / Megatron, Scarlett Johansson arsenic Elita-1, and Keegan-Michael Key arsenic B-127 / Bumblebee.

Transformers One is presently playing successful theatres everywhere.
